Chapter 349


    Chapter 349


    A good man was one who could both sweet-talk his wife and physically take care of her. And on this


    point, Herman was absolutely spot-on.


    A woman’s mood came and went quickly. After a bit of lovemaking, weren’t all worries and frustrations


    dispelled?


    Afterwards. Herman received a message from Flynn urging him to return to Salstrom Manor.


    Something had gone wrong. He had dozens of missed calls on his phone, all from his family. His phone


    had been on silent, so he hadn’t heard them.


    Herman read the message, calmly turned off the screen, and told Anastasia, “Honey, you rest for a bit.


    I need to head back to Salstrom Manor. I’ve pacified the young, now I need to appease the old.”


    Anastasia felt relieved and said, “Please talk nicely with Granny and don’t annoy her further. As for your


    parents, I’ll go apologize to them tomorrow.”

    “Leave this matter to me, you don’t need to worry.” Herman said as he got up and started dressing,


    “Granny and the rest are still angry. It’s not appropriate for you to step in now. Once I’ve settled


    everything, we’ll all sit down for a meal.”


    “Alright, you better go.” Anastasia said, “I’ll head back to Harmony Meadows too. Our sudden departure


    will worry my mother.”


    “I’ll have Dailey take you home.” Herman said.


    Herman called Dailey, and half an hourter, he arrived at the vi’s entrance to take Anastasia back to


    Harmony Meadows. Meanwhile, Herman headed back to Salstrom Manor. At Salstrom Manor, Granny


    Anita was still fuming. After returning to the Manor, an anonymous tip had revealed that Anastasia was


    pregnant before getting married. And the one to expose Anastasia was none other than Julie.


    Seeing the Salstroms leave one after the other during the dinner party, Julie knew that the news of


    Anastasia’s infertility had sparked a fire among the Salstroms. She decided to fan the mes by


    revealing Anastasia’s premarital pregnancy, further fueling Granny Anita’s rage.


    Feiman and Katelyn had both seen the document. The couple was left speechless. The daughter-in-


    law they had carefully chosen was not as they had thought. Even if Katelyn wanted to put in a good


    word, she couldn’t find the words to say.


    Everyone had tried to contact Herman, but he neither answered nor replied, making him unreachable.


    Granny Anita was so angry that her blood pressure nearly skyrocketed. Flynn had to send Herman a


    message urging him toe back quickly before something serious happened.


    Herman returned to Salstrom Manor at eleven o’clock in the evening. The Manor was brightly lit, and


    no one had gone to bed. They were all waiting for Herman.


    Granny Anita had made a promation – Herman must be found tonight.


    Upon entering the main hall, Herman immediately sensed the tense atmosphere.


    Feiman was furious and mmed his hand on the table, “Herman, you’ve really done it this time. Did


    Anastasia have a child before marrying you? You hid such a big thing from us. Do you even respect us


    at all?”


    First, the news of Anastasia’s infertility was revealed, and now the fact that she had a child was also


    exposed. Herman was well aware that someone was plotting behind the scenes. However, now was


    not the time to find out who that person was.


    Granny Anita asked, “Herman, tell us, were you tricked? Did you know that Anastasia had a child?”


    Flynn couldn’t say a word this time, not knowing how to help Herman. Katelyn wanted to say something


    but chose to remain silent, instead opting to hear what Herman had to say first.


    “Granny, I knew about this.” Herman calmly and sincerely said, “Before we got married, Anastasia


    confessed everything to me. I chose to marry her after careful consideration. I hope to get your support


    and blessings. I love her, and she hasn’t done anything wrong. It was me who chose her. At first, I even


    deceived her about my identity.”


    Upon hearing this, Granny Anita grimaced in pain and tapped her cane, “You’re still defending her,


    Herman. You really are bewitched.”


    “Granny, you watched me grow up. Do you think that I’m the type of person who can be easily seduced


    by beauty?” Herman said seriously and solemnly, “Granny, I won’t divorce her. As her husband, I have


    to protect her. I hope that you can give Anastasia a chance. After you spend some time with her, I’m


    sure you’ll change your mind.”
